Broke out the old D70... GMT IIc SS pic

I hadn't shot with the old D70 (or any of my Nikon gear) for about a year. The siren's song of the EOS-5D was too strong.

I don't have the lenses to shoot macro or even moderately close-focusing stuff with Canon mount though, so today I broke out the trusty old D70 to see how it fared.


D70, ISO 1600 - 50/1.4D @ f8 + 20mm Kenko AF extension tube.

Handheld in my kitchen... yes the watch is horribly dirty. More to come soon - still need to get off my lazy butt and light properly...

I have looked for the etching in the crystal (I believe that is what you want me to photograph) but I have not been able to locate it.

Do we know for sure if the newer models with the chapter engraving will have the etched crystal as well?
